The dry-leaf of this is promising- cacoa tones, subtle clove and cinnamon, and something almost like freshly baked bread
1st Steep: 172F for 1.5 minutes. I’m going to describe this tea as Thanksgiving dinner minus the turkey. Butternut squash with that caramelized glaze it gets from roasting it just right! Green beans covered in butter. Aromatic and comforting spices wafting through the air. This tea puts me in a very happy place! :-)
2nd Steep: 176F for 1.5 minutes. Very similar to the first, a little darker and deeper. If possible even more buttery. Enjoying this far too much to pick it apart. Sweet potatoe pie anyone?
3rd Steep: 168 for 1.5 minutes. Less squash, more bread. Honey sweet. Strong clove undertone. This tea makes me think in soundbytes. Fresh warm brown bread straight from the oven and slathered in fresh butter.
4th Steep: 180F for 2 minutes. Is this a exercise induced food dream from my run this morning? Grainy, roasted, heads of wheat. Heavy clove and cinnamon. Less buttery this steep. Brown sugar on the edges of the taste.I might have some more of this after I shower. And I think I may just need a turkey sandwich for lunch to complete the Thanksgiving dinner theme of this tea!
